The Florida Society of Pathologists is excited to announce that we will be using PathPresenter’s digital pathology software to host our "Rare and Interesting Cases" session this year. All attendees will have access to the digital pathology platform to view and assess the 5 cases online ahead of the meeting, as well as for review during the in-person session.
Attendees will also have the opportunity to vote on their favorite case at the end of the session on the mobile app and the top case will win a prize!
Cases Include:
Case 1: Sam Amofa-Ho, MD
Case 2: Felipe Camacho-Cordovez, MD
Case 3: Marci Crowley, MD
Case 4: Tricia O'Brien
Case 5: Darby BeDell, MD
